Full-Time Magister: Summoning Eight Demons at the Start.

Chapter 52 My hand slipped

……

Backstage at the auction, led by a waiter, Lü Cheng and his two companions found the auction manager, a middle-aged man.

"this……"

The manager stared blankly at the pile of colorful gems that Lü Cheng had poured out of his pocket.

If Mu Nujiao hadn't been there, he would have called for help!

Did you rob a jewelry store?

No, you robbed the museum, didn't you?

"Ahem, sir, are you planning to auction off all these gems?" the appraiser asked.

"Mm." Lü Cheng nodded.

"Approximately how much can you sell it for?"

"I'm sorry, sir, we need a professional appraiser to examine each of your gems one by one," the manager said seriously.

"However, if I may ask, these things of yours, they shouldn't have... any special origin, right?"

These gems are all of high quality. If they were taken out individually, he wouldn't be so surprised. But, there's a whole bunch of them!

Even if you're rich and powerful, you can't play like this!

"Coming from another dimension, does that count as a special origin?" Lu Cheng asked.

"Dimensional space?" The manager was taken aback.

Is it his understanding of dimensional space?

With a wave of his hand, Lü Cheng sent out a flash of light and Xiaotian, a creature no bigger than a parrot, flying out with a sapphire in its beak.

"that's all."

"..."

The air fell silent.

Even Mu Nujiao, who was mentally prepared, was still stunned by this scene.

Summoned beasts can do this?!

"Ahem, sir, please wait a moment, I'll have the appraiser come over right away." The auction house manager could hardly believe his eyes.

The summoned beast brought out a high-quality gem?

Summoning can be played like this?

I've never heard of that!

……

After much commotion, Lü Cheng finally left the auction house.

Among these gems, the auction house is willing to help him promote and auction the highest quality ones, with an initial valuation of at least several small targets. This is because those gems seem to have been tainted with some fire-attribute demonic energy due to their long-term protection by the evil dragon legion. If used to make magical tools, they will provide a good boost to fire-type mages.

The auction house simply bought up the other gems for him.

"You achieved financial freedom really quickly," Mu Nujiao said with a strange expression.

Is this the legendary chosen one?

The summoned beasts are so considerate!

Apart from the few that haven't been auctioned yet, the other gems that were directly acquired by the auction house have already sold for two small fortunes!

Moreover, judging from Lü Cheng's appearance, it seemed that his summoned beast could bring him gems at any time!

In other words, if Lü Cheng ever needs money in the future, he can just take out a few and sell them!

No wonder she's practically been offering herself to a tiger these past few years, and this guy still hasn't agreed to join the Mu family...

"What's wrong?" Lu Cheng asked.

"No, it's nothing." Mu Nujiao shook her head.

It would be very inappropriate for her to bring up these topics now, especially since Bo Cheng has just gone through something like that.

……

Xishui Town, Hangzhou.

In order to investigate the reason for the drying up of the river in Xishui Town and to capture a fugitive named Chaohe, Tang Yue called Lü Cheng over.

The Tribunal is currently investigating the Black Vatican and is short-handed. She can't find any other suitable helpers in the short term, so why not use her own man?

Lü Cheng, who was also unsure how to handle the strange atmosphere between Ye Xinxia and Mu Nujiao, naturally took the opportunity to come over.

"You brat, aren't you afraid of getting stabbed?" Tang Yue asked with a strange expression.

Even the eldest daughter of the Mu family in Shanghai dares to be a scumbag?

Are you really not afraid of getting killed while walking alone at night?

"What knife?" Lu Cheng asked, his demeanor upright.

"She's my sister. Throughout history, who has ever had a sister who's like a knife to her brother?"

Tang Yue's eye twitched. "Take it easy."

She was genuinely worried that Lü Cheng's womanizing ways might cause her some serious trouble.

"You should take it easy too," Lu Cheng said.

"They were drugged and didn't even know it."

Tang Yue was taken aback. "Drugged?"

Lu Cheng waved his hand helplessly, triggering the effects of the medicine in Tang Yue's body.

Suddenly, Tang Yue felt a surge of heat throughout her body and couldn't help but pounce on Lü Cheng.

"I..." Tang Yue felt a surge of shame and annoyance.

She was actually drugged?

If Lü Cheng hadn't been called over, wouldn't she have...

"You're scared now?" Lu Cheng activated the horse talisman, instantly clearing Tang Yue's abnormal status.

"This..." Tang Yue was stunned, looking at Lü Cheng with some confusion.

She had never seen such methods before.

However, despite her curiosity, she didn't ask any further questions.

However, Lu Cheng was a little annoyed when Pang Lai's arrival interrupted him last time, and that was part of the reason he refused Pang Lai. Now, with such a good opportunity, why isn't this guy making a move?

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who takes advantage of others in their time of need?" Lu Cheng asked speechlessly.

Tang Yue paused, then nodded with a strange expression. "You are!"

Back in Bo City, if Lü Cheng hadn't used his mind-based abilities to cause trouble, how could she have fallen into the trap so quickly?

Lu Cheng lowered his head. "So that's how you see me. Then why don't we take this opportunity to settle things from before?"

Tang Yue's ears turned red, and she quickly sat up. "No, we have important business to attend to right now. Let's do it another time."

Although she didn't dislike it, she didn't want to be so hasty.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

……

After leaving the inn, Tang Yue and Lü Cheng followed Chao He's footsteps and arrived at a desolate wilderness.

They happened to see a group of mages who had come to compete for the fire-type spirit seed.

"If I kill them all, will you arrest me?" Lu Cheng asked.

Tang Yue was taken aback. "Why?"

"Kill him to silence him," Lü Cheng shrugged.

"Those are members of the Dongfang family. If I don't silence them after I rob them, how can I ever show my face in Shanghai again?"

Tang Yue looked conflicted.

Although what Lü Cheng said was true, silencing him was still an option...

"You're hesitating over this? Looks like I'm not that important to you."

Lu Cheng shook his head and walked out of the woods.

The Dongfang family members, who had just driven away the hunter mage team, had a slight change in expression.

"Boy, this is a spiritual seed discovered by my Dongfang family. If you know what's good for you, get lost!" Dongfang Jun said impatiently.

The battle with those people just now consumed too much magical energy. If we continue fighting, the commotion will be too great, and if it attracts other mages, this spirit seed will really be lost!

"..."

As if he hadn't heard the warning, Lü Cheng walked straight toward the reservoir, and with a wave of his hand, relying on his absolute control over the fire energy, he collected the fire-type spirit seed into his hand.

Upon seeing this, Dongfang Jun's veins bulged.

This is completely disregarding him!

boom!!

A fierce punch suddenly erupted, heading straight for Lü Cheng.

"Be careful!" Tang Yue said instinctively with concern.

Lu Cheng stood motionless, letting the fierce punches pound on his body.

"Ha! They're really obsessed with spirit seeds, even to my Dong..."

Before he could finish speaking, the expressions on Dongfang Jun's and the others froze.

Following the principle of "no harm from smoke," Lü Cheng, who was hit head-on by the Fierce Fist, was completely unharmed. In fact, the fiery energy unleashed by the Fierce Fist was directly grasped by Lü Cheng in his hand and condensed into a small fireball.

"Domain..." Dongfang Jun felt a chill in his heart.

Fire elemental domain!

Moreover, control?

A high-ranking mage?!

"Senior, I am Dongfang..."

boom!!!

Lu Cheng casually waved his hand, sending back the fiery punch launched by Dongfang Jun, amplified several times over.

In an instant, the members of the Dongfang family were completely engulfed by the flames, turned to ashes, and vanished into the world.

"..."

"Sorry, my hand slipped." Lu Cheng looked at Tang Yue and shrugged helplessly.

Tang Yue took a deep breath and turned her head away.

"I didn't see anything."

Hiding in the shadows, Chao He, who had originally planned to reap the benefits, saw this scene and his expression became extremely stiff. Just as he was about to leave, a pillar of fire suddenly descended from the sky.

boom!!!

"Sorry, my hand slipped again."
